"Duck Dynasty's" Lisa Robertson, wife of Alan Robertson, has just admitted to cheating on her husband, and having an abortion in the past. The affair, referred to as "an old flame," was first mentioned in a new book from the couple, part of the duck-based A&E reality show.
That's some serious news to reveal to the world, which the couple has done via their newest book- "A New Season: A Robertson Family Love Story of Brokenness and Redemption."
Apparently, the book also dishes on some dirt in Alan's past as well- drinking, drugs and sex.
According to The Daily Mail, Lisa had her abortion at age 17, and cheater on her husband with "an old flame" in 1999.
The couple recently spoke to Us Weekly, to provide a little more info on just why they'd want to chronicle all this heartbreak in a book.
Says Lisa: "We wanted to write our story, and [my past] has everything to do with our story. We just wanted to put it out there - the good, the bad, the ugly, but also what God has healed us from and brought us through."
As well, Alan adds: "It was really hard. It was one of the most difficult things our family has ever gone through...What I will say is that once I made the decision that I was in a place where I could forgive Lisa and I wanted our marriage to work, they got on board behind me. It took a little while for each of them in their individual way to work through their issues with Lisa, but they did. And now we're very close and they're very close to her."
The book is currently available on Amazon, where it's described as "a candid story of rescued love and renewed commitment."
What do you think? Candid story of rescued love, or something a little trashier?
Check back soon for the latest on the Robertson clan- on "Duck Dynasty" and beyond. We'll see if there are any more secrets (maybe an affair or two) to come from the Robertsons, or if Alan and Lisa's affair and abortion are the only "Duck Dynasty" scandal to come.
